It is a better thing to weigh and measure priorities in the illuminating light of your own mission than to have your activities formed by the impressions and expectations of others.

We tell the real truth of our life by the stories we repeatedly tell.

Go ahead. Weep for the rare, the never seen this way again, the excruciating, ineffable, unmitigated beauty of love.

Life is defined more by its contrasts than its samenesses; Life is defined more by its risks than the many securities.

I recognize the delivery of grace to my day, even if I cannot identify a specific return address.

Laughter is what spills over the edge of an inspired life.

Gardening is all about optimism.
